I'm a friendly, thoughtful, carefree person that enjoys socializing, meeting new people and having good conversation. I've never had trouble meeting people before, but in Wichita it's pretty alienated...

Working a job to try and get the hell out of Kansas and start a career elsewhere. I've graduated into a crappy economy, but I'm optimistic and working my tits off to try and establish some kind of career that will engage creativity. Just finished work on a documentary and hoping to get more work.

Running! Just ran a marathon.

Waffling on about anything and everything (esp. history and the arts). I challenge you to bore me.

Drinking and socializing - not really skills, but I'm pretty good at cutting loose when I need to :)

I don't sound like I'm from around these parts. I have a hybrid accent that I intend to get patented.

Books:
The Demon Haunted World, Don Quixote, On Liberty, old school romance novels (Dumas, Sabatini etc). HP Lovecraft, MR James, Algernon Blackwood, George R.R. Martin, Lord Dunsany, Patrick O'Brian, Klaus Kinski's insane autobiography.
Movies:
TCM baby!, foreign movies, artsy movies. Babette's Feast, Notorious, Roman Holiday, The Third Man, Cries and Whispers, The Last Detail, The Passion of Joan of Arc, The Magnificent Ambersons, Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?, Closer, Manon of the Spring, A Clockwork Orange, Naked, Star Wars and Jaws (obviously).
Music:
Manic Street Preachers, My Bloody Valentine, Portishead, The Rolling Stones, The Jesus and Mary Chain, The Horrors, Nico Vega, Los Campesinos!, Echo and the Bunnymen, Joy Division, T-Rex, The Strokes, Bowie, Ramsey Lewis Trio, Bob Dylan, Beatles, Johnny Cash. (Generally anything other than Three Doors Down, Nickelback, Puddle of Mudd or Green Day suits me quite well).
Food:
If there's curry on the menu I'm having it. Love Indian, Thai, Italian. Wine, though not a food (!), is always good too. I'm always up for trying new and interesting foods; when you live on the west side of Wichita you're kinda of out of luck unless you want a heart attack for dinner.

1- Laughing... a lot.
2- Good conversation with good company over some form of drink.
3- Running
4- Rocking out in my boxers.
5- A notepad.
6- Oxygen. Ha. Ha. Ha.

Probably the same things you do: the future, art, politics, why Wichita can't fix it's feckin' roads.

Anywhere but in front of my computer. Like to be out of the house if possible. Doesn't have to be a bar, but...

I thought the Quiet Game was a real game...

until I was 21.
